Mamdani and Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy controllers were prepared. The controllers were designed using Fuzzy Logic Toolbox. The membership functions and rules were used as design tools that give opportunity to model a control surface and controller properties. The control system of d.c. (direct current) motor drive with two feedback loops is considered. First loop is used for stabilization of armature ...

This paper investigates two fuzzy logic PID controllers that use simplified design schemes. Fuzzy logic PD and PI controllers are effective for many control problems but lack the advantages of the fuzzy PID controller. Design methodologies are in their infancy and still somewhat intuitive. Fuzzy controllers use a rule base to describe relationships between the input variables. Implementation of...

Due to the continuous change in load, the frequency and tie-line power of control areas get disturbed from their scheduled value which is undesirable. Automatic Generation Control (AGC) is an essential mechanism in electric power systems which balance generated power and demand in each control area in order to maintain the system frequency at nominal value and tie-line power at its scheduled va...

The internal model control (IMC) scheme has been widely applied in the field of process control. So far, IMC has been mainly applied to linear processes. This paper discusses the extension of the IMC scheme to nonlinear processes based on local linear models where the properties of linear design procedures can be exploited. The IMC scheme results in controllers that are comparable to gain-sched...

The paper is focused on the computation of all possible robustly stabilizing Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) controllers for plants with interval uncertainty. The main idea of the proposed method is based on Tan's (et al.) technique for calculation of (nominally) stabilizing PI and PID controllers or robustly stabilizing PI controllers by means of plotting the stability boundary locus in...

This paper presents a load frequency control in four area power systems using fuzzy gain scheduling of PI controller is realized. The system simulation is realized by using Matlab/ Simulink software. System dynamic performance is observed for conventional PI, fuzzy PI and fuzzy logic controllers.

In this paper we consider decentralised PI control of the water levels in an irrigation channel. The water levels are controlled using overshot gates located along the channel, and the output of the controllers is the head over gate. This choice of manipulated variable is advantageous since the head over gate is directly related to the flow over the gate. The PI controllers are augmented with a...

This paper focuses on the development of intelligent controllers for use in a process of enzyme recovery from pineapple rind. The proteolytic enzyme bromelain (EC 3.4.22.4) is precipitated with alcohol at low temperature in a fed-batch jacketed tank. Temperature control is crucial to avoid irreversible protein denaturation. Fuzzy or neural controllers offer a way of implementing solutions that ...
